      so what

      Why do you care - we can’t get every player going and just because a player goes to another club shouldn’t mean getting the hanging rope out.


      Maybe concentrate on the players we are getting

      Because Barella is a world class Jude level caliber and Klopp and Pep are big fans of him plus he was mentioned as our targets.

      He absolutely is not world class.

      He is. People are judging him because of one final, he's just as good as Bellingham if not better. He would be the ultimate signing to compete against the likes of City/Arsenal.

      Kim min Jae is also available and for a reasonable fee. We should be all over that because in a 1 year or 2 we need a replacement to VVD who declined since his injury.

      The Bellingham transfer getting finalised today felt like a bit if a kick in the teeth and a proper reality check. With Edwards and half his team gone I’m less confident in our ability to turn £40 million pound bargains into world beaters, particularly with the drop off in performances last season and emergence of Arsenal and Newcastle

      Expect our next announced signing to be a central defender, maybe next week but more likely the final week of June.

      Barella is probably one of the best in his position at the moment so I'd say he's 'World Class'.

      It's hard to define but for me he's a class act and would love him here

      If we were after Inter players I'd rather get Dumfries.
      Thought he was their best attacking threat in the Final.

      It’s ok, you don’t have to justify “getting sucked in” by a transfer target rumor. FFS some people on here can’t help but be a wet blanket.

      Barella absolutely is "world class", if by that you mean one of the best in his position. I've watched a lot of him and he's a very complete midfielder. If he's really available for 50m, which I doubt, then we'd be stupid not to be in for him.

      Dumfries is a good defender and has the energy to get up and down the pitch, but lacks quality in the final third. Dimarco is more our type of player. Him, Bastoni, Lautaro and Barella would all be excellent players for us.

      Anyway, hoping to see another CM and then a left sided CB doing the lean soon. I do like the look of Thuram but haven't seen enough of him to be sure, same with Kone.

      Griezmann's contract is up at the end of the month.
      I know he's 32 but how about making it the Summer
      of getting quality French players in the door.

      We just let a 30 year old Brazilian superstar leave. No chance.

      Would make no sense to bring in Griezmann and carry 6 forwards. That's just too many to keep everyone happy. The 6th forward wouldn't even make most game squads and i'm sure Griezmann would want competitive wages wherever he goes.

      Just read a quote from Jude stating that after watching Real beat Liverpool in the final, it convinced him to go to Real.

      What a muppet.

      I think you and I agree that we don't do enough of this type of transfer.

      Wages would be the stumbling block though.

      Would be hard for most people to turn down Real for this europa version of LFC to be fair. Not sure what we could have offered him that Real can't and more at this point.

      The club failed to kick on last season and its set us back.

      Team's new player says something glowing about new team.

      Shocking.
